Abstract
Compared to other cancers of the female reproductive system, ovarian cancer is the fifth most common cause of cancer-related death. Three-quarters of all cases of ovarian cancer at diagnosis are in stage III, and 26 percent are in stage IV. The complete resection of all visible macroscopic tumour during upfront cytoreductive surgery has been demonstrated to be the single most important prognostic factor in advanced stage disease. Amaximal cytoreduction followed by combined chemotherapy is the cornerstone treatment for these individuals. The primary and the best imaging method for preoperatively identifying adnexal masses is transvaginal ultrasonography. The most often used diagnostic method in clinical practise to evaluate the degree of tumour spread and the existence of peritoneal carcinomatosis is dedicated multidetector computed tomography procedures with standardised peritoneal carcer index forms. AIM OF THE WORK: To detect feasibility of advanced ultrasound by professional in the detection of postoperative residual tumor in cases of advanced ovarian cancer in comparison with computed tomography.
